TRUMP’S WALL

Presidential candidate Donald Trump said in his speech yesterday that he wants to build a wall across the Mexican border. The total length of the continental border is 1,954 mi (3,145 km). From the Gulf of Mexico, it follows the course of the Rio Grande (Río Bravo del Norte) to the border crossing at El Paso, Texas, and Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua; westward from that binational conurbation it crosses vast tracts of the Sonoran and Chihuahuan Desert, the Colorado River Delta, westward to the binational conurbation of San Diego, California, and Tijuana before reaching the Pacific Ocean.

The U.S. can’t even fix their bridges, keep their own roads intact and keep it all cost efficient. And this guy is going to build a wall? And what of those people who need to cross the border every day for work like doing business with our imports and exports.But hey there are reports he paid actors to cheer for him at his event, maybe he can chip in for the bridge.
To each his own, I’m sure there are people who will support him and this idea. But if they have a candidate that wants to build a wall, I’m looking for one who wants to build a mountain.
